Spirit Airlines is gone, but NJ budget travelers still have options. Breeze Airways just announced 4 new direct flights out of Atlantic City starting at only $39.
On April 16, 2026, I shared that things looked bleak for Spirit Air. There were numerous rumors that they were quickly failing and potentially heading towards liquidation.
It's expanding, with now 3 airlines soon to be flying in and out of the airport. For years, Spirit was the only airline that offered regularly scheduled flights at the airport.
Good News from Spirit Airlines. 500 pilots that were previously furloughed will be recalled to answer recent attrition … as Spirit Air is looking to emerge from bankruptcy protection.
